The CMLC Department also welcomes a new, part time German instructor, Professor Timothy<br />

Cable.<br />

Following his Master's studies at Bowling Green State <strong>University</strong> (OH), Professor Cable recently<br />

completed a year as a Fulbright English teaching assistant at Heinrich-Mann-Gymnasium in<br />

Cologne, Germany. In fact, he just returned to the Cleveland area at the end of July, <strong>2011</strong>. His<br />

Fulbright experience certainly furthered his competency as a language instructor and deepened<br />

his intimate knowledge of German language and culture.<br />

Professor Cable’s course work in German has covered a broad range of topics and eras, from<br />

Middle High German to contemporary politics, and has been complemented at every stage by<br />

extended stays in Germany and Austria. His love of Germany actually came by accident. He<br />

arrived at BGSU as a freshman English major and chose to take German for the foreign language<br />

requirement. A study abroad trip to Austria in 2005 through BGSU’s Summer Salzburg program<br />

changed his career path. He later spent a year in Hamburg, Germany, and fell in love with the<br />

language and the country.<br />

As a teaching assistant at Bowling Green State <strong>University</strong> (OH), Professor Cable gained valuable<br />

experience motivating undergraduate students to develop language skills and transcultural<br />

competence. He also received consistently positive evaluations from his students and<br />

supervising professors attest to the success of his teaching methodology. He has lots of<br />

experience with advanced technology, including computer- and web-based instruction,<br />

examples of which he will be most likely delighted to share with us here in CMLC.<br />

and Culture], and in this capacity he will work with Dr. James Martin, the co-Director for the<br />

Boler School, to develop and oversee this joint CAS-BSOB program. With respect to the IBLC<br />

program, Dr. Ferri will represent not only Italian Studies but the entire CMLC department and<br />
